Episode 19 - The Sun King with Eamonn Keenan

Welcome to Season 2 of Dragonfly Tales, a story podcast for children of all ages.

We hope you enjoy the return of LEO's TOP FIVE! Don't forget to post pics of your doggies and ideas for other top fives in the FaceBook Group.

This episode, we welcome storyteller Eamonn Keenan to the podcast.

Eamonn loves telling stories from Irish lore, particularly stories of heroes, fairies and ghosts. He learned many stories from his father, who was also a storyteller and a singer.

Now Eamonn tells stories to children and adults and has told in many different countries England Ireland, Finland, USA and Australia.

Eamonn will be bringing out an audio collection of folk tales later this year and you can watch him perform HERE at the World Storytelling Cafe.

Our story is an old folktale that has travelled the world - it has been told by travelling communities, such as the Romani, for centuries. It has lots of names but is usually called 'The Three Golden Hairs of the Sun King'.

We love this story and its introduction of the Fate sisters - you can find out more about the Three Fates Here.
